The 22nd annual San Diego Jewish Film Festival comes to a close today. The slate of films includes “The Names of Love,” a comedy in which a left-wing activist converts her political opposition through lovemaking; “My Best Enemy,” a drama that pits two childhood friends against each other, one becoming an SS member and the other a prisoner in a concentration camp; and “Torn,” “Little Rose (Rózyczka)” and “God’s Fiddler: Jascha Heifetz.”

“A Raisin in the Sun”

Lorraine Hansberry’s classic play may be 54 years old, but its themes of racial and class tensions and hoped-for redemption remain relevant enough that its sequel (Bruce Norris’ “Clybourne Park”) won a Pulitzer Prize last year. Director Delicia Turner Sonnenberg (Moxie’s co-founder and artistic chief) brings in an ace cast that includes Sylvia M’Lafi Thompson and Mark Christopher Lawrence, a star of NBC-TV’s “Chuck.”
